Thinset Removal

After removing all the tile, we had to spend 2 whole days removing thinset. It was fairly easy to remove from the part of the floor that is covered with a vinyl sheet. Not so much (and that's an understatement) from the concrete.

In the picture above you can see the part that we already scraped off (in the back) and the 16 ex-tiles we still have to scrape. It also shows some of the tools and protective gear we're using. You can imagine how sore we get after each day of doing this... I'm looking forward to start tiling soon!

About Me

So many blogs, so little time... I started with a blog about breads that my husband bakes (mmm... yum!), then figured that other foods deserve a blog as well. Joining Illustration Friday required yet another blog. One also has to keep track of all the books one reads, right? And what about buying an old house with lots of problems (=lots of writing material)? Yup, that's why so many blogs.
